At what age do people get an overactive bladder?

While overactive bladder (OAB) can affect people at any stage of life, its prevalence significantly increases with age. A 2024 meta-analysis found that the global prevalence of OAB increased over the past two decades, with higher rates among those aged 60 and above. However, the condition is not an inevitable part of aging and can also be found in young adults and even children.
